Super Junior's Yesung to release second full-length Japanese album in May

Super Junior's Yesung will release his second full-length Japanese album on May 27, celebrating the 10th anniversary of the singer's solo debut.

The upcoming album, "Sakihokoru Toki o Matsu no wa," which translates to "To Wait For the Best Time For a Flower to Bloom," will be released on music streaming platforms on Friday, ahead of the May physical release, according to the singer's agency, SM Entertainment, on Wednesday. 

The album will feature 10 total songs, with Yesung involved in writing the lyrics for all of them. 

"The album features the message [that Yesung ] wants to convey to the fans who have been walking alongside him as the seasons change, in different genres of songs such as rock, disco, country and pop," the agency said.

Yesung will also hold a live tour in Japan of the same name, performing in Osaka, Aichi, near Nagoya and Tokyo starting May.

Yesung debuted as a member of boy band Super Junior in 2005. He released his first solo EP, "Here I am," on April 19, 2016.
